Join us for a fun-filled afternoon in Hyde Park to celebrate Missouri turning the big 200! What better way to commemorate our deep roots here than a native tree planting. One of the trees to be planted is an oak sapling from the Mark Twain liberty tree from right here in Missouri! There will be activities for people of all ages spread out safely throughout the park and an ice cream truck! This will be part of the efforts of the Missouri Parks and Recreation Association (MPRA) to plant 200 native trees across the state in April.
